In this paper we propose a novel clustering algorithm based on maximizing the mutual information between data points and clusters. Unlike previous methods, we neither assume the d...
In the present study, an efficient strategy for retrieving texture images from large texture databases is introduced and studied within a distributional-statistical framework. Our...

In this paper, we present a new and robust shape descriptor, which can be efficiently used to quickly prune a search for similar shapes in a large image database. The proposed sha...
With the sheer growth of online user data, it becomes challenging to develop preference learning algorithms that are sufficiently flexible in modeling but also affordable in com...
